Daytshmerish (Шаблон:Lang-yi) is a Yiddish term for Germanized orthography of Yiddish. Daytshmerish Yiddish is spelled Шаблон:Lang-yi instead of Шаблон:Lang-yi.

History

The term was coined in the 19th century to describe derogatorily the style of Yiddish spoken by well-educated German speakers. There was a wide perception that educated Jews saw Yiddish as a lower-class 'Zhargon' language that could be 'improved' by inserting German terms.[1]

According to the Yiddish scholar Dovid Katz, "prejudices and misconceptions" concerning Yiddish were promulgated by both antisemites and well-meaning Jewish assimilationists during the 19th century, who both regarded Yiddish as a degenerated form of German. According to Katz, critics of Yiddish often highlighted the German, Slavic, and Hebrew syncretism of Yiddish to allege that the language was impure and corrupted.[2]

Sholem Aleichem ("Shalom Alechem") is widely credited with elevating the prestige of Yiddish language as a cultured language in its own right.[3]
